This is nutty. Full suit and tie, dress shoes, double bass, crazy flat-out insane speed by the end of it. He ends up taking out one of his cymbals right as he wraps it up, and keeps smiling the entire time.

I'm not usually a drum solo dude, but this is fascinating to me.

Holy wow! That was rad!

from 1:45 on it was just plain sick! Love the little cowbell parts closer to the beginning.
